MARQUETTE, Mich, May 10.-Twenty-
one years ago John Flynn, aged thirty
FIVE, shut himself up at home with a sister,
Mrs Donohue, and was forgotten. Nine
years ago Lawrence Donohue, son Of
Flynn's sister, disappeared. Apparently
some mystery was connected with the
house, which has been closed and the cur
tains down for years. although occupied by
Mrs Donohue. Yesterday their City Mar
shall forced entrance and discovered Flynn,
who had not been out for years, and
learned that Lawrence Donohue was hid
den in the same house, although he could
not be found. The man refused TO divulge
his hiding place. The woman claims the
old man has been in the house twenty
years, and her son, Lawrence, had not
stepped outside the door for niue years.
The old man fought desperately, but was
taken to the poor-nouse. He is a pitiable
looking object. Probably it is an insane
freak, as no reason is given for the strange
action of the two men and the woman.

A NEW MECHANICAL POWER
A Perpetual Motor Invented to supersede
the Steam Engine.

New York Special.l
After twenty years of study and expert
ment Mr.. Albert Pietrowski, machinist
living in fremont has succeeded in in
venting a new motor which promises to
revolutionize industry by dispensing not
only with stationary engines and boilers,
but also with the consumption of coal.
His motor is simple in plan ana construc-
ton. 1t runs without fuel, occupies little
room, and may be built at a merely nom
inal cost compared with the cost of steam
engine. 1t has power enough to set in
motion any large flour mill or factory.
Professor L. ]. Boeck, formerly professor
of engineering at the Univers sty of Vir-
ginia, describes the motor in report as
follows:
The new motor consists of two hollow
wheels, each pair revolving on the same
axis, but in opposite directions. Each
wheel is provided with grooved compert-
ments, radIatiDg from the center to the
circumference. To put each pair of wheels
in motion four iron balls OF equal weight
are put in the compartments of one and
five into those of the other wheel. The
ninth ball destroying the equilibrium and
performing thus its share of work on one
wheel, is switched off into an empty COM
partment in the other, and adds its weight
to continue the revolution. Each ball in
turn performs the function of the min tn
ball, and the two wheels are Kept in mo-
ton until checked by some arrangement.
By using wheels of five feet diameter, and
balls of about thirty pounds in weight,
LOCO to 200 revolutions per minute of
force amounting to four or five horse
power may be obtained. This force may
be increased to 100 and more horse power,
either by increasing the diameter of the
wheels and the weight OF the balls or
by increasing in due proportion the
number of wheels and the num-
Der of balls. A wheel sixty feet
high, thirty feet above ground and thirty
feet below ground would furnish the same
power as an engine of 100-horse power.
Ten pairs of wheels, each five feet in diam
eter. would furnish 50-horse power, and
occupy a small space. Fifty pairs of wheels
united would furnish 250-horse power,
which would move the largest mill in the
world. They would not occupy any more
space than large stationary engine and its
boilers. The great value of the new motor
in industry is that it will cost nothing for
fuel to run 1T, will make no smoke, and
will need no expensive engine-room. 1t
may be put out of doors, or in a shed.
One man is req uired to oil it. It runs at a
uniform speed, the number of its revolu-
tons per minute being always the same
1t may easily be stopped by applying a
brake, and IL may be started at any time,
night or day, at a seconds notice. There
is no building fire, shoveliug in coal and
getting up steam. You put your hand on
a leVer-the motor starts.

Cause for Democratic Rejoicing.
IGreencastle star.Press.I

There is great comfort and cause for
Democratic rejoicing in the facts demon
strated by the municipal election held IN
Indiana last week. A summary OF the re-
suits show that the Democrats made very
large gains, and the Democracy have OBJ
tanned control of cities and towns hereto
fore considered reliably Republican. d
glance at the newspapers of the State gives
the reason of this change, in that hereto
fore the Republicans have been in control,
and have made a continuous ecord OF ex-
travagance in the control of city affairs
the promises made by them to do better
have been violated again and again. till at
last patience ceased to be virtue and the
people have made a change for the better
by placing the Democrats in control-thus
are the wrongs of the people righted.

Bible, and her mind, in fact, seemed to be
absorbed in religious subjects.

STATE MILLERs' ASSOCIATION.
A New State Organization Erected and
Nhcera Chosan for the First Year.

A New State Organization Erected and
Omcers Chosen for the First Year.
A meeting of the millers of the State
was held at the Grand Hotel yesterday, to
consolidate the two organizations of mill
ers heretofore in existence. In June, 1882,
a State organization was effected, but the
interest therein waned and another meet
ing was called in February last and a con-
stitution adopted. Since that time it has
been thought best by members of both as.
sociations that a consolidation should take
place. This was effected yesterday.
Mr.. Nicholas Ellis, of Evansville, was
chosen chairman, and Mr.. d. III. Ranck, of
this city, secretary. After temporary or
ganization Committee on Permanent Or
ganiZation was appointed, which sub
mitted a new constitution, which was
adopted. The aim OF this State organjza-
tiOn is to centralize or give direction to the
efforts of local organizations throughout
the State. Various matters were dis
cussed, but no definite action was
taken on any OF them. The sub
iect "Bran-fattening" received a great
deal of attention It is becoming
understood generally that bran is better
for stock than any other food, even corn
being included. The interstate commerce
bill was discussed at some length. The
small millers who live IN the country
towns were great in its praises, while the
millers of the important cities can not de-
nounce it too fercely. The matter of
forming an alliance with the national
organization cf millers was mentioned,
but did not meet with much favor. Officers
for the ensuing year were elected as fol-
lows:

INDIANA's GROWING CROPS.
Reports Showing Condition of wheat

Reports Showing Condition or Wheat,
Corn, Etc, at This Time.
This weeks edition of the Indiana Farm
er contains reports of the condition OF crops
from which the following is taken:
THE very dry weather of April had a
worse effect upon the wheat than the sud-
den fall of temperature during the first part
OF that month. The damage accruing was
chiefly in the heavy clay lands. In the
bottoms little or no damage was done.
Within the last week, however, the plant
has shown great improvement and
the prospect is better now than it was dur
ing the first of May. The small rainfall
left the ground in very favorable condition
for oats, large area Of which has been
sown. II the weather continues favorable
the report for June will show better per
cents. by far of both wheat and oats. The
grasses were somewhat retarded by the
dry weather in April, but are at present in
very good condition.
SIT was feared that,the cold weather dur
ing April had seriously damaged the fruit
crop, but later examinations show that
both apples and peaches are in fine condi-
ton. The condition of the live
stock is reported well up for the month
which always brings changes from winter
to spring. There has been much less
complaint of loss by swine plague than
prevailed during the fall and winter,
though this is generally the case IN the
spring season. The averges of crops of the
three States, Indiana, Ohio and Illinois,
places Indiana ahead of Ohio. and almost
on an equal footing with Illinois.
"Of three divisions of Indiana Northern,
Central and Southern, the latter shows 81
per cent. of the condition of wheat, which
is the best. The Central division exhibits
the best per cent. of acreage of oats, being
9S, but the Northern division shows the
best per cent. of condition of oats. OF
clover the Southern division takes the
lead with 50 per cent. of condition. OF

CONTESTED ELECTION CASES.
Several Contestants File Their Complaints
With the Clerk of the House.


WASHINGTON, May 10.-The law passed
by the last Congress to regulate congress
sional election contests allows thirty days
after the filing of the certificate of election
for the contestee to give notice OF contest,
thirty days tor the contestant TO
reply and ninety days for the
taking of testimony, which shall
be forwarded to the Clerk of the House
without unnecessary delay. This testi-
mony has been received by the Clerk of
the House in the contested cases of Nc
Duffie against Davidson, of Alabama /;
Worthington against Post, of Illinois,
Lowry against White. of Indiana; Frank
against Glover, OF Missouri, and Smalls
against Elliott, of South Carolina.
The time limitation has not yet expired in
the New Hampshire case of Haynes against
Mckenzie. In the case of Thebe against
Carlisle the period within which the
testimony must be taken ended on
the 18th ult., but no testimony has yet
been received by General Clark, Clerk of
the House. General Clark says there may
have been some cause for delay in forward
ing the testimony in this case, although he
has not been apprised of any.
